@0917gva -- Thank you for sharing this cute vid. This song actually applied to me. 35 years later, we are here celebrating today. This movie is one of my faves. The actress is married to Brad Paisley, and the actor has been in so many series and movivs. He'd be a great son-in-law! And I love the Spencer Tracy (original) version even more. Many thanks, my friend! :-)
@ChrisCurtisFan I just got your "email" and thought how profound I had sent this particular song to you on this special for you and your husband. Yeah, I just knew if you were not familiar with the movie I was definitely 'gonna tell you about it. As you know by now I'm certain, I sent along a couple of clips as well Just as with you, I like the original with Spencer Tracey and Elizabeth Taylor. You two are very welcome, bless your hearts! :)
I never heard the song by Darlene Love. An appropriate name for someone associated with such a tender and loving song. This is so innocently beautiful and tender. We all will experience a parting with our child in one form or another and whether or not it is by marriage - no matter the reason - we will still feel these same emotions - a palpable aching in every fiber of our being. Our child grown up and leaving us. Someone we love more than life itself and that day comes far too soon.
Hi all, my name isTony Powers, I wrote the lyric to this song way back when, and it is heartwarming to see all your comments about it. Many many thanks for your love of this song. peace, tony
I still cry watching this movie....and the original 1951 film with Spencer Tracy. At the end, Dad dances with his wife (as in this film) to "Goodnight Sweetheart", not the doo-wop song, but the one written in 1931. I thought of "The Boy I'm Gonna Marry" as I watched my youngest daughter get ready for her wedding last August. Can anyone loan me another young adult I can marry off?? I love weddings! Very cute video---thank you!
We all know that men, by nature, are not monogamous. But when they meet the girl they want to marry, men go to their highest and best selves and give monogamy their best shot. That's why I always cry at weddings and cry even harder when I hear this song in this movie. If anybody could raise a daughter who would choose a man who would remain true to his wedding vows, it is Steve Martin -- the Anti-Jerk. Tears, Fears and Cheers -- The Wedding Song.
i saw this movie, good movie, 'cause anything with steve martin in it is okay, but, MAN, that girl is SPOILED ROTTEN. I'm female, and if I get married, i'd understand that it's about the PERSON i'm marrying, not about expensive crap! Yeesh. Bridezilla!!
Today, my beautiful goddaughter will be getting married. Alicia, my dear heart, you are marrying the most perfect man. May you always be as happy and as blessed as you are today.
me encanta esta película!!! la habia olvidado por completo , pero la he visto en la tv por cable y me recordo de lo mucho que me gustaba ...su banda sonora tambien es excelente y me trae muchos recuerdos de cuando era niña.........snif!
Every syllable of every word is sung so brilliantly...Darlene should be known the world over.
Innocence distilled and encapsulated inside this work of art.
I'm a man...and I can't stop playing and singing along to this in my car @ full volume....I'm married to a woman, but i don't care... I just want to sing "today I met the boy I'm gonna marry" or go "ahhhhhh ahhhhh ahhhhh" in the bits inbetween.
No other song in the whole wide world could capture the angst of a dad.....in one of those rare moments when your entire life runs before your eyes.....
can someone add the clip of the movie with this song?? in which George re-see all the life of his daughter since she was child?? i love it!!!!
